Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Tippo, MS.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they have 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 problems.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Tippo includes detoxification treatment that are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
