Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Gresham, WI.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Gresham to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

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