Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Ford, WA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether 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 treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Ford would include detox treatment that are responsibly administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
