Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Ola, AR.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health 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 require significant medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
