Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Guthrie Center, IA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping 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 drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
