There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Kewaunee to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help should find a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
