There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Wayne to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically 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 any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
