Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Firestone, CO.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Firestone can include detoxification treatment which are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly recommended.
