Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Blount, WV.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may 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. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Blount would include detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
