Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - St. Paul, NE.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether 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 problems.
