Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Boys Town, NE.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

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