Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Oakville, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get 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.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Oakville would include detoxification services which are responsibly administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
