Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Kuna, ID.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. 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 people with HIV or AIDS in Kuna would include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
