There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Zeeland to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that should be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
