Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Scott, MS.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Scott can include detoxification services which are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
