There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for someone in Mission to get professional help 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 occurrences among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are addicted to both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a deadly combination. When coupled with the fact that the elderly commonly suffer with other physical and mental health conditions that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a rehab program that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in substance abuse treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse treatment and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation program, where 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 assessment of both physical and mental health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A complete treatment plan will be put into place that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
