There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Littleton to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
