Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Watertown, MN.

For persons with HIV or 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 drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they receive addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Watertown can include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
