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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central 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 problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Quimby includes detox services which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
