Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Bird Island, MN.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do get drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. 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 people with HIV or AIDS in Bird Island can include detoxification services that are safely conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
