For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.
Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Carterville can include detox treatment that are responsibly administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind.
