Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Smithfield, NE.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals 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 are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
