Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Pound, WI.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether 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.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Pound would include detoxification treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
