Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Cripple Creek, CO.

For persons with HIV or 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 rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Cripple Creek includes detoxification treatment that are responsibly administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
