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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate 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 need significant medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Mavisdale would include detox treatment which are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
