Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Hope, NM.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Hope includes detox treatment that are responsibly administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
