For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue.
In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
Addiction rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Norfolk includes detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
