Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Surgoinsville, TN.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight 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 are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether 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.
