There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Half Moon Bay to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, and a safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A complete evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
