There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Waupaca to get treatment for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a safe detoxification 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 thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
