Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Star City, AR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate 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, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
