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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of 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 require critical medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses 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.
