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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
