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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they receive drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
