Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Friendship, TN.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently 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. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
