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

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Westside to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any 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 performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
