Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Kenna, NM.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

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