There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Seminole to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, 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 fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
