For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people 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 checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Lima can include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling 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 encouraged.
