There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Westerville to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental 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 in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
