There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in West Des Moines to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a safe detox 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 handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
