Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Oak Grove, KY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get 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.
