For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.
In many cases, people who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Westphalia would include detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
