Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Agency, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Agency includes detox services that are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
