Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Eupora, MS.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Eupora includes detoxification treatment which are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
