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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
