Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Palm Springs, CA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they receive alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients 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, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
