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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical help once they do get addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Ralph would include detox services which are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
