There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Westwood to get treatment for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug addiction. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that seniors often have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated concurrently, it is suggested that any senior looking for help should find a facility that offers treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more successful in an inpatient rehabilitation facility, and a safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to can be performed as the first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
