There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Center to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
