Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Franklin, GA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting 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 spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Franklin can include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
