Deutsche Hauptstelle für Suchtfragen. (2008). Substanzbezogene Störungen im Alter : Informationen und Praxishilfen (R. Gassmann, A. Koeppe, & C. Merfert-Diete, Eds.). Hamm: Deutsche Hauptstelle für Suchtfragen (DHS).
Abstract: Sucht und Suchtmittelmissbrauch im höheren Lebensalter waren lange Zeit ein Thema, das in der Öffentlichkeit und auch im professionellen Bereich zu wenig Beachtung fand. Erfreulicherweise ist, seit die DHS das Jahr 2006 zum Schwerpunktjahr „Alter und Sucht“ erklärte, vieles in Bewegung gekommen. Der altersspezifische Ausbau des Beratungs- und Behandlungsangebots hat begonnen und wird weiter fortgeführt. Die Suchtforschung hat sich verstärkt der Thematik angenommen und stellt in zunehmendem Maße verlässliche Daten und altersgerechte Diagnoseund Behandlungsansätze zur Verfügung. Ein weiteres zentrales Ziel ist die bessere Vernetzung von Altenhilfe, Suchthilfe, Medizin und weiteren relevanten Berufsfeldern. Auch hier sind Fortschritte zu verzeichnen. Der hohen Bedeutung des Themas entsprechend, hat das Bundesministerium für Gesundheit einen Förderschwerpunkt „Sucht in der alternden Gesellschaft“ geschaffen und wird in nächster Zeit weitere Projekte fördern, um die Situation suchtkranker alter Menschen zu verbessern. Alle diese Maßnahmen sind umso notwendiger, da infolge des demografischen Wandels die Zahl älterer Männer und Frauen mit Suchtproblemen in den kommenden Jahrzehnten stark zunehmen wird. Schon heute steigt die Nachfrage von Seiten älterer Betroffener nach psychosozialer Beratung und Behandlung spürbar an und noch immer ist es für Ältere oftmals schwer, ein geeignetes Hilfeangebot zu finden. Die DHS möchte deshalb mit der vorliegenden Broschüre alle Familienangehörige und Freunde sowie die Professionellen der verschiedenen Berufsfelder ermutigen: Sehen Sie überall dort, wo Sie durch Suchtmittel verursachte Probleme und Schwierigkeiten vermuten, nicht weg, sondern im Gegenteil, sehen Sie genauer hin, informieren Sie sich und bieten Sie Hilfe und Unterstützung an.

various. (2010). Guidelines for testing HIV, viral hepatitis and other infections in injecting drug users (European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction, Ed.). Manuals, 6. Luxembourg: Office for Official Publications of the European Communities.
Abstract: Infectious diseases are among the most serious health consequences of injecting drug use and can lead to significant healthcare costs. Injecting drug users are vulnerable to a range of infectious and communicable diseases through a variety of risk behaviours, and because of underlying conditions such as poor hygiene, homelessness and poverty. There is a recognised need for guidance on providing IDUs with a medical examination and testing for HIV, viral hepatitis and several other infections on a regular basis. In addition, improving testing uptake in this group would benefit epidemiological surveillance and monitoring as carried out at the national and international level. These guidelines are accompanied by a recommended package of prevention and primary care in relation to injecting drug users and infections. Treatment and other specialist care are not discussed in detail but are dealt with by indicating referral to appropriate services.
