There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Hornell to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
