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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if 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 rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Decatur can include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
