There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Hiawatha to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive 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 comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
