There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Marina to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly often suffer with other physical and mental health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
