There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Newport Beach to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, 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 commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is recommended that any senior searching for addiction help look for a rehab program that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
