There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Buffalo to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the 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 commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
