Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Wilmar, AR.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
