For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.
Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may 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 stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Salem would include detoxification services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
