There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Miller 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 stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
