There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Lebanon to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, and a safe detox 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 complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed 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 recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
