Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Indian Head, MD.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Indian Head would include detoxification treatment that are responsibly handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
