There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Fulton to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
