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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they receive drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Windsor includes detox services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is recommended.
