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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing 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.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Rimforest includes detoxification services which are safely administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
