Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Holts Summit, MO.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Holts Summit would include detox treatment that are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
