Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Burdette, AR.

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 rehab for their drug/alcohol 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 are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may 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. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
