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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may 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. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Lexington can include detox services which are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
