There are more seniors that suffer with addiction than you would imagine, and it is never too late for anyone in Sunnyvale to get professional help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse issues among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol simultaneously, a dangerous combination. When coupled with the reality that seniors commonly have other physical and mental health issues that should be handled concurrently, it is important that any senior looking for help should find a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/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 behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on 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 performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
