For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.
Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they receive drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in St. Marys would include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
