Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Bettendorf, IA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab 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 screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
