Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Powder Springs, GA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Powder Springs would include detox services that 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 recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly recommended.
