Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Lake Hubert, MN.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Lake Hubert can include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
