There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Vernal to get help 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 addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detox 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 conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
