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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Piedmont can include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
