There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Woodville to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health conditions that should be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
