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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, 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, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether 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.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Elkwood would include detoxification treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is recommended.
