There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Southgate to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, 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 fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
