There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Kilgore to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
