Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Pall Mall, TN.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential 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 problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
