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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
