There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Monticello to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
