Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Mountain Home, NC.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Mountain Home would include detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
