There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Princeton to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
