There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Paris to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder 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 alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause 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.
