Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Pauma Valley, CA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment.
