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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Gladys can include detox services which are safely handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
