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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
