Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Miner, MO.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
