There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Anoka to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help look for a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
