Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Springfield, MN.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing 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.
