Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Derry, NM.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients 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 disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Derry would include detoxification services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
