Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Colby, KS.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
