There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Stockton to get treatment for addiction so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often struggle with other physical and mental health conditions that should be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a rehab program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be handled at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A thorough recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
