Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Lagunitas, CA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they receive drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
