Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Alton, AL.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. 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 or AIDS in Alton would include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
