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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
