Tiivistelmä
Introduction: The world health organization (WHO) has projected one (1) in six (6) peoples to be aged 60 years and above in 2030, indicating a significant growth in the ageing population. Studies have also revealed that a considerable amount of the elderly population are using and misusing alcohol, although there are more negative consequences of the elderly peoples and alcohol use. Older adults have been found to be more vulnerable to the physiological effects of alcohol use and there are more dangerous interaction of alcohol and the pharmacopoeias that is mostly found in the elderly people’s life. These reasons necessitated the author, to research into intervention for elderly alcohol misuse, that is less medication centered.
Aim: Researching into how an elderly person with late-onset alcohol misuse can be assisted to achieve sobriety using need-adapted treatment.
Method: Literature review with deductive content analysis was carried on ten articles which was retrieved from trusted data bases search engines like EBSCOhost and SAGE journal. Three main categories were adopted for the study using the triadic structure of social cognitive theory (SCT) to from a categorization matrix for the analysis of the reviewed articles collected for the study.
Results: The study informed that need-adapted approach through its principles and modes of operation (i.e., individual therapy, family therapy, psychotherapeutic community, and pharmacotherapy as a supplementary to psychotherapy) has the tendency to assist an elderly person with late-onset alcohol misuse achieve sobriety. The results also showed that inclusion of the alcohol abusive person and his/her social network in treatment has more positive advantages of producing desired results.
