Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Atlanta, NY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Atlanta includes detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly recommended.
