Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - La Center, KY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and 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 are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they receive addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
