There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Cathlamet 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 prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
