Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Sedgwick, KS.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems 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.
