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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Mammoth Spring can include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
