Golden Gate, Illinois - Seniors/Older Adults
Seniors and older adults are prone to, and perhaps even predisposed, to addiction much in the same way as any other individual. In fact, seniors and older adult persons are already typically on prescription medications which can also be abused. When mixed with illicit drugs and alcohol, seniors and older adult persons are at risk of serious health effects including death. The social stigmas associated with drug or alcohol addiction may keep many seniors and older adult persons away from the drug and alcohol rehab programs in Golden Gate that will be able to help them. Due to this, there are drug rehabilitation programs which cater to this age range of person. These drug treatment centers in Golden Gate understand the situations which are exclusive to this age group, and how to treat drug addiction among seniors and older adults. Because seniors and older adults are already prone to illness and accidents, it is vital that they seek out treatment earlier than any illness or accident comes to fruition because of their addiction which can lead to long term if not fatal injury.
