There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Kewanee to get 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 healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a rehab program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
