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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems 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.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
