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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Natchez can include detoxification services that are safely conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
