Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Tama, IA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery 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 issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
