Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Sharon, ND.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Sharon can include detox treatment which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
