Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Owens Cross Roads, AL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
