There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Woodway to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors often have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment center, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
