Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Hills, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
