Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Waverly, IA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

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