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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.
