Persons in Roberts with HIV/AIDS may possibly find that they are in need of alcohol and drug abuse rehabilitation. It is important that the alcohol and drug rehab facility of choice is an option that understands the challenges involved in assisting clients stricken with these illnesses so that having HIV/AIDS does not get in the way of their rehabilitation. Once any physical challenges have been overcome, as is often the case with alcohol or drug addicted persons who have not taken care of themselves, individuals with HIV/AIDS in rehab will address all of the mental and emotional problems concerning their drug or alcohol addiction. The end result will be an individual who can take care of themselves physically and in life, and perhaps add several years to their lives.
