There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Hazel Crest to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and mental health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
