There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Sumter to get professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
