Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Denham, MN.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Denham would include detox services that are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
