There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Seaside to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and mental health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
