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

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 at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
