Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Lake Benton, MN.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Lake Benton includes detoxification services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is encouraged.
