Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Fort Riley, KS.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
