There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Julesburg to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
