Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Beech Grove, KY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery 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 if their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate 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 therefore need serious medical help once they do get addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
