There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Albion to get help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
