Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Reader, WV.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Reader can include detox services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
