Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Sanders, KY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
