There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Martinsburg to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health issues that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction 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 treatment facility, and a 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 assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
