Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Sheldon, IA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central 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 drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Sheldon can include detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is encouraged.
