There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Findlay to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a rehab program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
