Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Panama City, FL.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Panama City can include detox services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
