Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Burlington, WY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Burlington includes detox services which are safely conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
