Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Grants, NM.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Grants would include detoxification treatment that are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
