Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Elgin, NE.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Elgin would include detox services that are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
