Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Templeton, IA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial 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 substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they get drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

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