Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Grosse Tete, LA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, 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 problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
