Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Star City, IN.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical help once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing 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 problems.

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