Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Holbrook, AZ.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. 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 individuals with HIV/AIDS in Holbrook would include detox services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
