Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Alamo, TN.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart 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 medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
