Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Wounded Knee, SD.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Wounded Knee would include detoxification treatment that are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
