Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Pagosa Springs, CO.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight 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 drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Pagosa Springs can include detox services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is recommended.
