There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Philadelphia to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse 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 added to the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
