Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Carefree, AZ.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery 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 should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Carefree can include detox services 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 become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
