There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for anyone in Santa Fe Springs to receive professional help for addiction so that they can happily live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help look for a program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in an inpatient treatment program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be performed so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
