Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Evington, VA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses 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 treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Evington would include detox services which are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
