Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Keller, VA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Keller would include detoxification treatment which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
