Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Tuntutuliak, AK.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam 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 disorders.
