Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Augusta, AR.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Augusta includes detox treatment which are safely handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
