There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in St. Charles to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often have other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
