For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle 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 alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Whitman can include detoxification services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
