Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Cambridge, NE.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether 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 problems.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Cambridge includes detox services that are safely conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
