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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential 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 problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
