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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential 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 battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.

This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
