Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Elrosa, MN.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
