Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Blackwell, MO.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they receive drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation 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 diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
