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

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

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently 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 stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Guy includes detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
