Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Helena, MT.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Helena would include detox services that are responsibly handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly recommended.
