Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Notre Dame, IN.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Notre Dame to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism 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 coupled with the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment center, and a medically 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 evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
