Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Clawson, UT.

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

Often, people who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Clawson would include detox services which are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab 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 individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
