Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Cabin John, MD.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both issues 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. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they have 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 rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Cabin John can include detoxification services which are responsibly 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 sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
