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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Kenmore includes detox services that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people 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 strongly encouraged.
