For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.
Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Hartford includes detoxification treatment which are responsibly handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
