Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Ridgecrest, NC.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health 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, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Ridgecrest can include detox services that are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
