Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Laurel, IN.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical help once they do get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
