Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Arnold, MD.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they get drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Arnold can include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
