Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Jackson, AL.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety 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, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they get drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing 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.
