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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they receive alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
