There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Hudson to receive help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that should be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
