Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Mcintosh, NM.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should 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 deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons 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 Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Mcintosh includes detoxification services that are safely administered with both the patient and the staff in mind.
