There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Racine to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
