Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Scribner, NE.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
