There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Farmington to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for help look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription 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 mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
