There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Lancaster to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete 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 cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
