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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment 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.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Salem would include detox services that are safely handled with both the client and the treatment 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 persons have the same goal is recommended.
