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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle 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 don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they get addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
