Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Brooks, MN.

There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Brooks to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment look for a rehab 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 geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to 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 handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
