There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Olivia to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health ailments that should be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
