There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Goldendale to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation 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 comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
