Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Robins, IA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting 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 are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Robins can include detoxification treatment that are safely handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
