There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Hibbing to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
