Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Lithia Springs, GA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate 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 medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
