There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Glendive to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
