There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Sun Prairie to receive help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally 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 abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
