There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Travelers Rest to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
