There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Viroqua to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
