Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Hardy, IA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab 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 spread their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems 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.
