Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Linkwood, MD.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, 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.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems 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 disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Linkwood would include detoxification services that are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
