Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Arabi, LA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they receive addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that 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 disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Arabi would include detoxification treatment which are safely handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
