There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Mcalester to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
