Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Worthington, MN.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential 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 substance abuse problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Worthington would include detoxification treatment that are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
