There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Chippewa Falls 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 substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox 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 comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
