There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Encino to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a deadly combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
