For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential 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 issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Fort Wayne would include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
