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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol 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 may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Jefferson includes detox treatment that are responsibly administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
