There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Pomeroy to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
