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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical help once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they 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 disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Manassas would include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
