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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if 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.
