Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Challis, ID.

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

Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a 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, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Challis would include detoxification services which are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
