There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Phillipsburg to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often have other physical and mental health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
