Persons in Nekoma with HIV/AIDS may find themselves in need of alcohol and drug abuse treatment. It is essential that the drug rehabilitation program of choice is one that understands the challenges involved in helping clients afflicted by these diseases so that having HIV/AIDS is not a barrier to their rehab. Once any physical challenges have been overcome, as is often the case with addicted persons who have not properly cared for themselves, persons with HIV/AIDS in treatment will address all of the psychological and emotional problems involved in their drug addiction. The ultimate prize will be an individual who can take care of themselves both body and mind, and perhaps add quite a few years to their life.
