There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Yeagertown to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
