For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting 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 in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.
In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing 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 treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Duluth would include detoxification services which are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
