There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Garden Grove to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for help should find a program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff trained to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment 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 very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
