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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping 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 transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Picacho would include detox treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the patient 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 persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
