Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Clarksville, MD.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Clarksville can include detoxification services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
