There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Millbrook to receive help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, and 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 complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
