Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Jay, FL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. 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 should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Jay can include detox services that are responsibly administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons 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.
