There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Cee Vee to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
