There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Vandalia to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
