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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
