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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Bronson can include detox services that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
