There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Parker to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
