Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Stanford, MT.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Stanford would include detoxification treatment which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is encouraged.
