For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam 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.
Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Walsenburg would include detox services that are responsibly administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
