There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Stoughton to get professional 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 occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health issues that should be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
