There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in El Monte to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential treatment facility, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any 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 psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
