Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Helix, OR.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do get drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have 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 problems.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Helix would include detoxification treatment that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
