There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Orange to receive help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most common substance abuse issues among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When added to the reality that seniors commonly struggle with other physical and psychological health ailments that must be handled concurrently, it is recommended that any senior searching for addiction help look for a rehab program that provides treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which offer addiction treatment for seniors have staff prepared to provide addiction treatment and general elderly health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, where a safe detox from alcohol and any prescription medications that the person has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A complete assessment of both physical and mental conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the cause of the addiction to begin with. A comprehensive recovery plan will be put into place that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
