There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Kanab to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily 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 issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete 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 often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
