Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Alicia, AR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Alicia would include detox treatment that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
