There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Forsyth to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
