There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Seaside to get help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health conditions that should be treated concurrently, it is important that any senior searching for addiction help look for a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled concurrently, 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.
