There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Manchester to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
