Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Westover, AL.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
