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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight 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 or alcohol addiction. 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 are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they receive addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
