Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Gerrardstown, WV.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation 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.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
