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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical help once they get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Varina can include detoxification treatment that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is recommended.
