There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Stafford to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
