Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Bellwood, AL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
