There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Flowood to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for help should find a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
