There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Downers Grove 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 addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
