Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Gibson, IA.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Gibson to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent 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 dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
