There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Troy to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
