There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Scottsbluff to get professional help 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 common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors often have other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
