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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Hesperus can include detox services that are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
