There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Idabel to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
