There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Butler to get professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help look for a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
