Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Canaan, IN.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential 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 issue continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently may 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 medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine 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 disorders.
