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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle 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 medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have 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.
