Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Port Charlotte, FL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Port Charlotte would include detox services that are safely handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
