There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Reserve to get professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
