There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Orange to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the reality that seniors often have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
