Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Elk, CA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
