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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they get drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses 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.
