Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Pilot Station, AK.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they do get addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
