Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Blairsburg, IA.

For people with HIV/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 substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
