For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether 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.
Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Greeley would include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
