Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lonoke, AR.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment 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 disorders.
