Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Upton, KY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
