There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Kennebunk to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a 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 first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
