There are more seniors that suffer with substance abuse than you would imagine, and it is never too late for someone in Santa Rosa to receive treatment for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as physically and mentally healthy as possible. The most prevalent addiction occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, this is a dual issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications at the same time, a treacherous combination. When added to the fact that the elderly commonly have other physical and psychological health ailments that must be treated at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a program that includes treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Treatment centers which provide addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to deliver addiction therapy and general elderly health care, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in an inpatient treatment program, where a safe detoxification from alcohol and any medications that the senior has become dependent on can be performed as the very first step. A comprehensive assessment of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are often the cause of the addiction in the first place. A thorough recovery program will be put into action that will target the specific and unique needs of the senior.
