Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Casey, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
