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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Ely can include detoxification treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
