Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Ronald, WA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Ronald can include detoxification treatment that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people 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 encouraged.
