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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative 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 problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Santa Margarita includes detox services which are safely handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals 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 recommended.
