There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Mount Morris to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
