Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Fredonia, KY.

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

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether 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 problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Fredonia includes detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
