Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Merritt Island, FL.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Merritt Island would include detox services that are responsibly handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
