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

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Melrose to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment program, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
