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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Luther to receive help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
