There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Texas City to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and mental health ailments that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
