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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Thorp includes detox services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is encouraged.
