For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do get addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Shiprock would include detox services which are safely handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
