There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Coshocton to get 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 problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
