There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in North Branch to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that must be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
