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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting 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 spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health fall apart 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 require critical medical help once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Thornburg can include detoxification treatment which are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is recommended.
