There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Plentywood to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
