Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Atkins, VA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment 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 should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

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