Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Austin, IN.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Austin would include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
