There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Windom to receive help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a rehab program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment program, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
