Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Arabi, GA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health fall apart 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 medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing 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 treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Arabi can include detoxification treatment that are responsibly administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
