Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Searsboro, IA.

There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Searsboro to get help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
