Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Franklin, NC.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Franklin can include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is encouraged.
