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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, 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. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Dayton can include detox treatment which are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
