There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Milladore to get treatment 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 common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
