Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Greenway, AR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they receive drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
