Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Swisshome, OR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Swisshome would include detox services that are responsibly conducted with both the client 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 persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
