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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Westville would 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 become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
