Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Waters, MI.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Waters would include detox treatment which are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
