Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Storm Lake, IA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
