Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Kenyon, MN.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
