There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Columbus to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
