Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Bruce, SD.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Bruce can include detoxification treatment which are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
