Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - New Century, KS.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting 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 spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether 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.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in New Century can include detox services which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
