Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Weaverville, CA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. 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 may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Weaverville can include detoxification services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly recommended.
