There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Dumas to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
