There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Caledonia to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often have other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
