Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Shannon Hills, AR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they get substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems 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 problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Shannon Hills would include detoxification services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
