Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Summerville, GA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people 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 addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people 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, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Summerville would include detox treatment which are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
