Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - La Salle, CO.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in La Salle can include detoxification treatment which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
