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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment 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.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Branford would include detoxification treatment which are safely handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
