Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Brightwood, OR.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Brightwood would include detox services which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
