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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. 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 assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
