There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Easthampton to get treatment for addiction so that they can live 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 addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
