Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Wentworth, SD.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Wentworth can include detoxification services that are safely handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
