Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Carter, KY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
