Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Gakona, AK.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
