There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Middleton to receive 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 stable as possible. The most common substance abuse problems 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 treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that should be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment 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 cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
