Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - West Point, KY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they receive addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing 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 problems.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
