There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Englewood to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough 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 commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
