Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Friendship, WI.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Friendship includes detoxification services that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
