There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Chicopee to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a rehab program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment center, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person 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 they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
