Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Westfir, OR.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
