Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Jamestown, VA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Jamestown would include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
