Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Woodford, WI.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Woodford can include detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
