There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Williamstown to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, where 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 thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
