Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Highlandville, IA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
