There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Eldon to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a safe detoxification 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 comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
