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

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

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Vernon can include detox services that are safely handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
