Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Yankton, SD.

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

In many cases, individuals who struggle 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, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Yankton includes detoxification services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
