Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Jerome, AZ.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health decline 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, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
