Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Allgood, AL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Allgood includes detox treatment which are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
