There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Concord to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, 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 fact that seniors often suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
