There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Rochelle to receive treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
