Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Big Laurel, KY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they do get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Big Laurel includes detoxification services which are safely conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is recommended.
