There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Hereford to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
