Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Archibald, LA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
