Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Hosston, LA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle 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 drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies 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 medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Hosston can include detox services that are safely handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons 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 strongly encouraged.
