There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Lake Villa to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health issues that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for addiction help look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
