There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Marinette to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for help should find a facility that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
