There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Hamburg to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, where 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 first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
