Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Monterey Park, CA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and 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 safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Monterey Park can include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
