There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Maumee to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
