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

For people 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 rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Greenwood would include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the client 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 people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
