Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - North Palm Springs, CA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart 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 therefore need critical medical intervention once they receive drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
