There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Severna Park to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive evaluation 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 treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
