There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Mount Vernon to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help should find a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
