There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Louisville to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors often have other physical and mental health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
