Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Chauvin, LA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Chauvin would include detoxification services which are safely conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
