Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Scottdale, GA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Scottdale can include detoxification treatment that are safely conducted with both the patient and the treatment 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 goal is recommended.
