There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Mundelein to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health issues that must be addressed concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for addiction help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
