Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Staffordville, CT.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Staffordville would include detox services that are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people 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 strongly recommended.
