Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Vernon, UT.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they receive alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if 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 rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Vernon includes detoxification services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
