There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Custer City 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 physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a medically 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 first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
