There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Conway to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
