Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Brookston, MN.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing 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.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Brookston would include detoxification treatment which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
