There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Montpelier to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help look for a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
