For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they receive addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in La Junta can include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
