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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Beech Grove would include detox services that are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
