Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Dwarf, KY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who fight 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. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation.
