Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Jeanerette, LA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical help once they get addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Jeanerette would include detoxification services which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the 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 sober goal is strongly encouraged.
