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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they do get addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
