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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get drug rehab.
