There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Yulee to receive help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
