Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Tiff, MO.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
