There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Mason City to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
