Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Colgate, WI.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they get addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have 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 treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Colgate includes detoxification services that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
