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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
