There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Harris to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any 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 psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
