Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Pavo, GA.

For persons 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 treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Pavo includes detoxification services which are safely administered 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 recommended.
