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

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

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart 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 require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
