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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they have 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 disorders.
