Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - La Crescent, MN.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
