Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Bridgewater, IA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, 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, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
