Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Elm Grove, WI.

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

Often, people who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they receive drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
