There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in New City to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
