Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Webster, SD.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping 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 if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

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