Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Lightfoot, VA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they do get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

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