Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - New London, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in New London can include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
