There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Baxter to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
