Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Walnut Ridge, AR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative 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 drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
