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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals 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, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
