There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Fishersville to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
