There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you might imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Humboldt to receive treatment 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 stable as possible. The most common addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a deadly combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often have other physical and mental health ailments that should be addressed concurrently, it is suggested that any senior searching for treatment should find a facility that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Rehab facilities which offer substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in a residential treatment center, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the first step. A complete 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 commonly 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 personal needs of the senior.
