Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Bellingham, MN.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation.
