Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Forest Knolls, CA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting 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 transmit their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
