Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Clear Lake, MN.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
