Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Lamont, IA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether 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 disorders.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Lamont would include detox treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
