Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Shawnee, WY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Shawnee can include detoxification treatment which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
