There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Venice to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable 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 prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When added to the fact that seniors commonly suffer with other physical and psychological health issues that should be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for addiction help look for a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide substance abuse treatment and general elderly health services, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential treatment center, where a medically safe detox from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
