Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Rio Communities, NM.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Rio Communities would include detox treatment which are responsibly handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
