Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Avawam, KY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
