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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they receive alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether 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 problems.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is recommended.
