There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Latrobe to get help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a rehab program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, and a medically 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 very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
