There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Monroe to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems 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 deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that should be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
