Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Des Moines, NM.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Des Moines would include detoxification treatment which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
