There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Cambridge to receive professional 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 healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
