There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Chanute to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
