Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - St. Pete Beach, FL.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in St. Pete Beach includes detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
