Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Gravette, AR.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems 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 problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Gravette would include detoxification services that are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
