Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - St. Rose, LA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in St. Rose includes detoxification treatment which are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
