Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Huntington, IN.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time 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 quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine 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 problems.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Huntington can include detox treatment which are safely administered with both the patient 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 recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
