Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Hewett, WV.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may 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 medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they get addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
