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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

Often, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
