Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Dinwiddie, VA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Dinwiddie includes detoxification treatment that are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
