Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Irwindale, CA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
