Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Onyx, CA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
