Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Labadieville, LA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Labadieville would include detox services that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
