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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing 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 recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Lexington Park can include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
