Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Painter, VA.

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

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Painter can include detox services which are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
