Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Hepburn, IA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
