Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Dupree, SD.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery 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 in the case their drug problem continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they receive drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full 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, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
