There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Jefferson to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest 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 cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
