Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Bradford, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment.

This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
