For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.
In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Akutan includes detoxification treatment that are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is recommended.
