Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - West Ridge, AR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they receive addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in West Ridge includes detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind.
