There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Curtis to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
