Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Wheatfield, IN.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
