Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Brevig Mission, AK.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. 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 can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
