There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Georgetown to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
