There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Bell Gardens to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detox 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 complete assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
