Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Canyon, CA.

For people 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 adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative 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 or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses 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 disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Canyon can include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
