There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Fulton to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for help should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
