Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Alton, UT.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they receive addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
