Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Hansell, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Hansell includes detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
