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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they get drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see 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.
