Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Durango, IA.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Durango to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and mental health issues that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
