Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Okreek, SD.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
