Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Decaturville, TN.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Decaturville can include detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the patient 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 goal is recommended.
