There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Costa Mesa to receive help 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 prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that seniors often have other physical and mental health ailments that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A comprehensive recovery program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
