Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Bokeelia, FL.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people 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 show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Bokeelia includes detoxification services that are responsibly administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
