There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Pleasanton to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly often have other physical and mental health conditions that should be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for treatment look for a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
