There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in South Windsor to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment center, where a 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 thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
