There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Concord to receive treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health issues that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior looking for help look for a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, 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 comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues 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 action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
