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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential 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 problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
