There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Corry to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
