Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Spanish Fort, AL.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Spanish Fort can include detox services that are safely handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
