There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Paramount 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 common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed concurrently, it is recommended that any senior looking for addiction help look for a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment center, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery program will be put into place that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
