There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Antioch to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and mental health conditions that must be handled concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
