Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Garfield, NM.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they receive drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Garfield can include detox services which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
