Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Cobb, GA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting 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 spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Cobb includes detox services which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
