Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Jacksonville, AR.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they receive drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Jacksonville would include detox treatment which are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
