There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Martinez to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more effective in an inpatient treatment facility, where a safe detoxification 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 psychological conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
