Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Westlake Village, CA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Westlake Village can include detox treatment which are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
