Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - St. Thomas, ND.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies 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 medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
