There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Lebanon to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences 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 deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
