Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - South Whitley, IN.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
