Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Artois, CA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
