Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Mount Auburn, IA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Mount Auburn includes detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
