There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Rancho Mirage to receive professional help for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for treatment should find a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment center, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent on but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
