There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Peru to get help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues 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 at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment look for a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction 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 prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
