Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Hondo, NM.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have 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 people with HIV or AIDS in Hondo includes detox treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
