Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Homer, IN.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight 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 rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, individuals 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 give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Homer would include detox treatment which are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is recommended.
