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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline because of 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 may require serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they 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 problems.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Oak City includes detoxification treatment that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is recommended.
