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

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

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Marshall includes detoxification services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people 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 recommended.
