There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Belton to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences 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 dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, where a safe detoxification 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 comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
