There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Adel to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
