There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Kalamazoo to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. 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 the elderly often have other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for help should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
