There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Bowie to receive treatment 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 addiction problems 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 deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed 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 personal needs of the senior.
