There are more seniors that struggle with addiction than you might think, and it is never too late for someone in Spring Valley to get help for addiction so that they can happily live the rest of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most common addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism 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 dangerous combination. When combined with the reality that the elderly often struggle with other physical and mental health issues that must be treated at the same time, it is recommended that any senior looking for treatment should find a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver substance abuse therapy and general geriatric health care, including behavioral health services. Treatment will be more successful in a residential rehabilitation program, where a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the person has become dependent to can be performed as the very first step. A thorough assessment of both physical and psychological conditions will be conducted so that they can be addressed at the same time, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction to begin with. An effective treatment program will be put into place that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
