Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Forbestown, CA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
