Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lucerne Valley, CA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
