Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - South Dos Palos, CA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. 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 may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
