There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Santa Barbara to get 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 prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a deadly combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for help should find a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, and 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 very first step. A comprehensive evaluation of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A thorough treatment plan will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
