Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Colorado City, CO.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety 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.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Colorado City would include detox treatment that are safely conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
