There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Grinnell to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
