Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Leggett, TX.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Leggett can include detoxification services that are responsibly handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
