Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Sabula, IA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
