Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Bethany, WV.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have 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 problems.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Bethany can include detox services that are safely conducted with both the client and the 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 persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
