There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Konawa to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health issues that should be handled 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.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
