There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Gouverneur to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest 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 alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an 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 have other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification 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 assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
