Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Backus, MN.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart 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 require serious medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
