Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Essex, MD.

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

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine 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.

Addiction rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Essex would include detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
