Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Saginaw, AL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central 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 issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people 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, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

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