There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Ellsworth to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
