Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Palmer, AK.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems 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.
