Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Laurel, FL.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
