There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Ashland to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment 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 thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
