There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Burgaw to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an 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 suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
