Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Alvarado, MN.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Alvarado to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where 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 thorough assessment 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 commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
