Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Dexter, NM.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Dexter would include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is recommended.
