There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Seneca to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
