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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. 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 are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Hornick can include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is recommended.
