Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Dixon, IA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do get drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Dixon includes detoxification services that are safely handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
