For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.
Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Missoula can include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
