Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Bull Shoals, AR.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
