Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Old Monroe, MO.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Old Monroe would include detoxification services which are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab 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 strongly recommended.
