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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
