There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Norwell to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally 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 suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
