There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in San Luis to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism 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 deadly combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment facility, and a 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 very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
