There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Mcpherson to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
