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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may 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. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing 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.
