There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Sunset Valley to receive help for addiction so that they can live the rest of their lives and be as physically and mentally stable as possible. The most prevalent addiction problems among seniors are alcohol abuse and prescription drug abuse. In many cases, this is a dual issue where seniors are addicted to both prescription medications and alcohol at the same time, a dangerous combination. When combined with the fact that seniors commonly have other physical and psychological health conditions that should be addressed at the same time, it is important that any senior searching for help look for a facility that provides treatment for co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide substance abuse therapy and general elderly health services, including psychiatric services. Recovery will be more effective in a residential rehabilitation facility, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be performed so that any issues can be handled at the same time, because these issues are often the driving force of the addiction in the first place. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will address the specific and unique needs of the senior.
