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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing 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.
