Addiction Treatment Programs for Seniors - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - San Diego, CA.

There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in San Diego to receive professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug abuse. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that should be addressed at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for co-occurring disorders.

Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff trained to provide substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation program, and a medically safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be performed so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and personal needs of the senior.
