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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
