Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Buchanan, ND.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
