Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Greene, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently 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. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
