Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Holcomb, MO.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
