There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Belmont to get help 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 substance abuse problems 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 treacherous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification 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 comprehensive evaluation 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. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
