There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Dover Plains to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often have other physical and mental health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
