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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery 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 issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
