There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Redmond to get 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 common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy 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 prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
