There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Loma Linda to get professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and mental health ailments that must be treated concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient rehabilitation program, and a safe detox 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 comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
