Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Salem, KY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems 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.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Salem would include detox services which are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
