There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Sparta to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help should find a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, 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 address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
