Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Lindsay, CA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they receive addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
