There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Westmont to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
