There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Emeryville to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life 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 addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health issues that should be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
