There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Carrollton 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 common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
