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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
