Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Silver Springs, FL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Silver Springs can include detoxification services that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
