Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Overton, NE.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment 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 drug issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether 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 disorders.
