There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Fallston to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse 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 dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
