Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Wood Lake, MN.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Wood Lake to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
