Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Yampa, CO.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

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