Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Forkland, AL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
