Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Palmer, IA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
