Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Morrison, IA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Morrison would include detox treatment which are safely conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
