Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Calumet, MN.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Calumet to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
