For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.
In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Westminster would include detox treatment which are safely conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
