Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Weldon, 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 adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical help once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses 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 disorders.
