Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Evarts, KY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical help once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
