Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Brian Head, UT.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they receive drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they have 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.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Brian Head can include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is recommended.
