There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Sevier to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often have other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
