Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Hickory Plains, AR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may 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 stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Hickory Plains can include detox services which are safely conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
