Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - South Milwaukee, WI.

There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in South Milwaukee to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
