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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have 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.
