There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Mount Vernon to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues 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 simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, and a safe detoxification 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 conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
