Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Anderson, AL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Anderson can include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
