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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Seymour can include detoxification treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
